Be Your Best

Today I returned to school after a long holiday break. It was a day of preparing for the arrival of a new group of children.

For me as a teacher I look forward to the challenge of reaching all the children I teach and making a huge difference in their lives. I want to switch them on to learning by sharing in some of my passions and discovering in themselves their immense potential.

It is a huge challenge to try and have all children to switch on to what I do. Ultimately all I can do is my best and I want from the children that they do the same.

A few years ago I wrote a song called Be Your Best to reflect some of these thoughts.

Please click below to listen to the You Tube version of this song. Lea has added the lyrics to sing along!

Any feedback on the lyrics that spoke to you would be appreciated!

This is one of my favourites of your songs. So positive! And what a great motto to live by!

You are a great teacher and I believe that this year will be an amazing year for you and the new children in your class. Just remember you earned the medal last year... :-) And I'm sure that the poem I wrote then for you will apply this year too!
